The present invention discloses a device (10) used for providing dynamic isolation and damping of dynamic vibrations, in a passive way, originated in the launch vehicle of a space shuttle and reaching the payload or satellite. The device (10) comprises a plurality of identical elementary unit elements (20), such that the device (10) is designed in a modular way, allowing the individual modularity of each one of the elementary unit elements (20): therefore, each of the elementary unit elements (20) is tailored and designed individually, and the complete device(10) can be designed for each particular application and payload needed as a function of each of the elementary unit elements (20) allowing an easy design and lower costs, for a wide range of payload applications. Each of the elementary unit element (20) comprises a spring component (11) and a damping component (12), such that the functionalities provided for each component are separate and can be individually tailored, thus providing a device (10) having a wider range of adaptation capabilities.
